Is Bharathiyar A Supporter of Marxism?: Some Basic Questions

பாரதியார் மார்க்சியத்திற்கு ஆதரவாளரா? : சில அடிப்படைக் கேள்விகள்

Abstract

Bharathi’s view of labor is completely subjective. He presents his ideas in his works in a way that defends the prevailing social and political environment, without considering objective reality. Failed to see the Industrialist X Worker contradiction dialectically as related to the social relations of production, Bharathi, unconcerned about the ‘competitive’ capitalist market, reduces it to the problem of the individual capitalist. Bharathi, who raised an enthusiastic voice about social change through lyrics like “Agave, the revolution of the age has arisen”, “Krita Yuga Ezhuga Madho” has taken a stand against the oppressed in his prose.
